This Porter House guacamole is tomato-free due to personal preference... but you'll never miss the tomatoes! Great flavour and texture!

With the long weekend coming up, I think it's about time to post my Porter House guacamole recipe 🙂
My husband HATES tomatoes, especially when raw.
He's ok with tomato sauce if he has no other option, and he LOVES ketchup... but finds raw tomatoes to be the nastiest thing possible.
It's something I'll probably never understand, but have learned to work around - and today's recipe is an example of that.
Tomato-Free Guacamole
We both LOVE guacamole, but he hates having bits of tomato in his.
I like the colour and additional flavor that the tomato adds, so I created this recipe as kind of a compromise.
Red bell pepper adds that colour and flavor to the mix, and the taste is amazing - NO compromise there!
Porter House Guacamole Variations
As with most guacamole recipes, this is highly adaptable. A few examples:
- You can trim the seeds and ribs from the jalapeno for less heat
- You can add more jalapenos for more heat.
- Toss in a chopped up mango for even more colour, and to up the sweetness if you like
- The Tequila is optional
- Swap the lime juice out for Calamansi Juice, if you have a wild addiction to it (like I do).
... it's really quite flexible!
Enjoy!
